Deep down chemists know all chemistry is physics, and that fact makes their bones tremble.

They’re not recyclable yet. In a few years when we have Mr. Fusions and replicators, things will be different.

Lol literally Recycling everything made of particles would be pretty sick

They are making plastic out of strange quarks!?

What a quarky process recycling is!

plastic bottles are recyclable
ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 1 week ago
PET bottles yes, other plastic bottles not so much, or at least until someone figures out a way to turn plastic trash into a cheap alternative to petroleum.
Maalus@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Not really. Plastic gets damaged when heating it up to melting temps. You won’t get a product that has the same properties, unlike with aluminium for instance. You can maybe get away with adding a small percentage of recycled pellets back in, but that’s it.

Metals are also not 100% recyclable due to contamination. We just have plenty of use for low grade metal alloys.

fair enough

It’s true. Give me a hot and dense enough furnace and I’ll recycle everything into iron. EVERYTHING.
davidgro@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Even denser and I’ll make it neutronium.
… But not too dense or it becomes ???.

Hawking radiation… eventually.
Eheran@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Wouldn’t the hot part actually make it harder…? All you want is density and as little to counter gravity as possible.
pennomi@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Fair enough, though I promise at those pressures things get spicy.
mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 week ago
Its harder but its necessary i guess. For ionisation

The factory must grow.

we already have one
